Another Fun Fold card – this uses the Layering Circles Dies (#151770) to create a pop out window fun fold card!

Measurements:
Basic White Cardstock (#159276)
*5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″
*5 1/4″ x 8″ scored at 2″, 4″ and 6″
Designer Series Paper in the sample I used Fine Art Floral (#154558 – which will be retiring at the end of June) choose complimentary patterns
*5 1/4″ x 4 (for the card front)
*1 7/8″ x 5 1/8″ for the inside center pop up panels
* piece of scrap colored cardstock or DSP for the sentiment

Adhere the 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of Designer Series paper to the card base using tape only on the outer edges of the DSP. Die cut a circle or shape with tapered edges (a square or rectangle will not work because the edges will catch on the window). Separate the die cut shapes save the DSP die cut for another use and keep the Basic White card stock circle for a future step.
Take the 8″ x 5 1/2″ cardstock piece oand on the 8″ side score at 2″, 4″ and 6″.

Then fold as shown in the second picture below.

Adhere the 2 smaller pieces of DSP to the center two sections of the Basic White 8 x 5 1/4 piece of cardstock.
Adhere with Stampin’ Seal + for a strong seal – the right section to the right outer edge of the card base leaving an equal border the entire way around the insert.
Fold the cardstock so the DSP pieces are back to back and the left hand DSP section is on the right side with the left hand section of Basic white cardstock up against the fold of the card as shown in the picture below!

Using the Stampin’ Seal + make three lines in a C shape on the outer edges of the card as shown above and close the card front over the taped section and rub to adhere. This is what the card will look like at this point…

Place Stampin’ Seal + on the right side of the circle only and lay the Basic White cardstock circle die inside the die cut circle and rub the right side to strengthen the tape seal.
Here are two other samples with some retired products but I wanted to show you how changing the die shape or the paper changes the look completely!
Embellish the card front and the circle that will “pop out” of the card and you have a Pop Out Window Fun Fold Card!

Hope this Inspired you – now go out and create art – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’,

Natalie
